A greenstick fracture occurs when a bone bends and cracks, instead of breaking completely into separate pieces. The fracture looks similar to what happens when you try to break a small, "green" branch on a tree. Most greenstick fractures occur in children younger than 10 years of age.

Finding the right fracture code ... Use 25600 for “closed treatment of distal radial fracture (e.g., Colles or Smith type) or epiphyseal separation, with or without fracture of ulnar styloid; without manipulation.”
ICD-10-CM Code for Unspecified fracture of right wrist and hand, initial encounter for closed fracture S62. 91XA.
Patients were identified by an electronic procedural code search for distal radius ORIF (CPT 25607, 25608, and 25609).
In ICD-10-CM a fracture not indicated as displaced or nondisplaced should be coded to displaced, and a fracture not designated as open or closed should be coded to closed. While the classification defaults to displaced for fractures, it is very important that complete documentation is encouraged.
Angulated fractures: The two ends of the broken bone are at an angle to each other. Translated fractures: The ends of the bone have shifted out of alignment. Rotated fractures: The bone spun (rotated) when it broke. Greenstick fractures: One side of the bone is broken, causing the other side to bend.
A Colles fracture is a break in the radius close to the wrist. It was named for the surgeon who first described it. Typically, the break is located about an inch (2.5 centimeters) below where the bone joins the wrist. A Colles fracture is a common fracture that happens more often in women than men.
